Iberian Lawyer


Armando Albarrán, Gibson Dunn’s Partner in Charge in Madrid, sums up the firm’s strategy in Spain in an in-depth interview with Iberian Lawyer: “quality, quality, quality; execution; the best lawyers working for the best clients on the best deals.”

Our thesis, he added, “is that there is room for a small group of lawyers very focused on large transactions, or complex transactions, and very focused on client service.”

In the interview featured on the front page of the magazine’s Spanish edition, Armando discusses the firm’s thinking behind the recent launch in Madrid, the team he’s setting up there and the deals pipeline that has quickly emerged for Gibson Dunn, as well as the team’s transactional focus, especially cross-border, and how having an office in Spain is vital for wider European transactional work.
